Description

FIELD OF INVENTION
The present disclosure relates to a display panel and a manufacturing method thereof, and in particular to a display panel for touchscreen and a manufacturing method thereof.
BACKGROUND OF INVENTION
In the prior art, a medical amorphous silicon panel detector is a conventional optical sensor, which comprises amorphous silicon photodiodes and thin film transistors. As shown in FIG. 1 , a schematic diagram of a panel detector pixel unit is illustrated, wherein pixel units are formed on a substrate 11. Each of the pixel units comprises a thin film transistor 12 and an amorphous silicon photodiode 13, wherein the amorphous silicon photodiode 13 includes a first light shielding layer 131, a first insulating layer 132, a drain electrode layer 133, an N-type layer 134, an intermediate layer 135, a P-type layer 136 and a contact electrode 137.
Furthermore, an insulating layer 14 insulates the thin film transistor 12 from the amorphous silicon photodiode 13. A second light shielding layer 15 is formed on the thin film transistor 12 and a portion of the surface of the insulating layer 14 where no light is required. A connection electrode 16 is formed on the contact electrode 137. A passivation layer 17 is formed on the second light shielding layer 15 and the connection electrode 16. The first light shielding layer 131 and a gate of the thin film transistor 12 are located on the same metal layer, and the drain electrode layer 133 and a drain of the thin film transistor 12 are located on the same metal layer.
However, the main part of the amorphous silicon photodiode is a stack of the P-type layer 136, the intermediate layer 135, and the N-type layer 134, wherein the intermediate layer 135 is processed by lightly doping. Therefore, the thickness of the panel detector is approximately the thickness of the amorphous silicon photodiode 13 superimposed on the drain of the thin film transistor 12, and the intermediate layer 135 of the amorphous silicon photodiode has a thickness of about 1 micrometer so that the thickness of the panel detector is larger. The optical path of the incident light in the pixel unit of the panel detector is long, and the incident light easily enters adjacent pixel units to cause interference.
In addition, the pixel unit includes the thin film transistor 12 and the amorphous silicon photodiode 13 disposed separately, wherein the thin film transistor 12 and the amorphous silicon photodiode 13 are separated by a distance so that the pixel unit has a larger occupied area and a lower resolution. Moreover, the amorphous silicon photodiode 13 needs to be separately fabricated after forming the thin film transistor 12, and multiple steps of film formation and lithography are required during the fabrication process so that production cost higher.
As a result, it is necessary to provide a display panel and a manufacturing method thereof to solve the problems existing in the conventional technologies, as described above.
